Hylea's Talon: A Guide to Acquiring Avowed's Rare Upgrade Material

Hylea's Talon is a crucial, rare upgrade material in Avowed, essential for crafting powerful equipment. This guide outlines several methods for obtaining this valuable resource.

Fastest Methods: Merchants

The quickest way to acquire Hylea's Talon is by purchasing it from merchants. Lluisa Melcer (Farmer's Market) and Abritt Porrya (Piaza Mez Vidarro) in Emerald Stair each sell up to 5 Talons for 450 coins apiece.

Exploration and Foraging

Hylea's Talon can also be found throughout the world of Avowed, particularly in Emerald Stair. Look for the distinctive plant icon on your mini-map. While exploring, keep an eye out for these plants; they resemble those shown in the image above. Progressing through the Emerald Stair missions will naturally lead you to many of these resources.

Crafting and Material Conversion

Alternatively, you can craft Hylea's Talon. At your party camp's workbench, four Paradisan Ladder can be combined to create a single Talon. Alternatively, the "Downgrade" function (located next to "Upgrade Materials") allows you to convert Admeth's Wyrt into Hylea's Talon.

Disassembling Equipment

High-quality equipment ("Exceptional" or better) can be broken down at the workbench. Check the item description's "Break Down" section to see if it yields Hylea's Talon. This is a good way to recycle unwanted upgraded weapons and armor.

With these methods, you'll be well-equipped to gather the Hylea's Talon you need to enhance your gear in Avowed. Now go forth and conquer!

Avowed is available now on PC and Xbox.
